Mouser Electronics congratulates the Faraday Future Dragon Racing team on an exciting 2016–17 FIA Formula E racing season, which ended last month in Montreal. Drivers Loic Duval and Jerome D’Ambrosio finished the season with six top-10 finishes between them, with Duval scoring the fastest lap at both Marrakesh and the first race at Montreal. Mouser was a major sponsor of the team throughout the 12-race season in partnership with TTI, Inc., Molex, and Panasonic.

“The Dragon team was hungry and gave some strong showings throughout the year. We congratulate them on a great season,” said Todd McAtee, Vice President, Americas Business Development for Mouser Electronics. “We are proud to be a part of this cutting-edge technology and exciting racing series alongside TTI, Molex, and Panasonic.”

This was the third-straight year that Mouser Electronics sponsored Formula E racing. Formula E features cars powered exclusively by electric power and represents a vision for the future of the motor sports industry, serving as a framework for research and development around zero-emission motoring.

“Formula E demonstrates a unique combination of sustainability and performance,” said Mike Morton, TTI Global President. “TTI is proud to play a part in the development of automotive technologies of the future.”

“Molex is honored to continue working with Mouser in sponsoring this innovative venture,” said Fred Bell, Vice President of Global Distribution for Molex. “We are excited to play a part in the development of this new and exciting technology.”

“At Panasonic, we are very pleased to sponsor such a successful and forward-thinking sport,” said Jeff Howell, President of Panasonic Industrial Devices Sales Company of America. “Through this sponsorship, the team has consistently proven its dedication to technological innovation.”
